Sex and the City

I have gotten to a point in my life where I felt old and boring even though I am young and vibrant. Daily life has become mundane and even off days have become either routine or even more stressful with trying to catch up on what was not done on my work days. I am a mother to a 17 month old baby boy and fiance to a hard working man. All of our family is back home in Memphis, TN while we are the only ones in Virginia. Life is tough for me. It's truly the hard knock life. So how do you change that? I always wish that my life is like Sex and the City. The women are fabulous and they seem to have it all, great fashion, great friends, great job, great social life, great balance overall. This is what's missing from my life. The first thing I decided to do to be about that life, lol, is revamp my wardrobe.

I am lucky to have a fantastic older sister who lets me know about all the latest trends and cool places to shop so I ordered a few key items and will continue to do so every now and then until the wardrobe is completely just fab. A big thing for me is time management. I wake up early enough in the morning to throw myself together and get my son ready for daycare. So I have to either learn to wake up a bit earlier for morning fab routine or find some short cuts. Wrapping my hair at night and choosing my outfits all make he morning easier. Setting out makeup and predetermining the look I'm going for works wonders. The weather plays a huge part in my wardrobe, but I have to just go for my look no matter what.

One large aspect of the Sex and the City Life that is not complete or even near it is that set group of friends. My friends, family, and even associates are all in other states so this will take some time. Trent and I plan on buying a new house either in Cali or northern Virginia and from there I will hope to be further along in my MBA program and closer to a job in my career field that might lead to great friends with common interests.

This life is not easy to come by. But I plan on continuing to strive for it because happiness is still along the way. Anywho, got some spring cleaning to do and doctor's appointment for baby on this off day of mine. Setting myself up for success. I love clean house, healthy happy baby, and a happy man :)

More sessions to come. . .
